Meet the Scientific Literacy Tool at the 7th International Conference on Science in Society – 1-2/10/2015 Chicago US – come and join us!

The focus theme for 2015 is – Educating Science:

“At its most cogent and most productive, science is engaged, responsible and accountable to the social world. It is integrally linked to agendas, interests, values and ethical stances. These need to be declared and exposed to examination, just as much as science’s propositions about the character of the natural-physical world itself. A constant and searching investigation of human interests goes to the heart of the question of the social credibility and ongoing viability of science. The focus theme for 2015 ‘Educating Science’ is interested in how ‘science’ educates and is educated by the social world.”

Within this context the Scientific Literacy Tool will lead a workshop on “Promoting Scientific Literacy: Practical and Psychological Challenges”

Guest speakers at the conference include Dr. James Gillies, head of communication at CERN and Prof. Bruce Lewenstein, professor of science communication at Cornell University. On the second day of the conference, international guests offer hands-on workshops for scientists and journalists.

“Society to Science – lowering the barriers to scientific knowledge” at the Open Research Cambridge event on Monday 23/2/2015 – come and join us!

Society to Science: Lowering the barriers to scientific knowledge

Speaker: Dr. Keren Limor-Waisberg

Are you interested in SCIENCE? Maybe “science” is a big word and you are interested in a particular scientific subject? Health? Nutrition? Birds? In this event we are going to speak about YOUR scientific interests and open the discussion addressing the role of science in society. Keren is the founder of the scientific Literacy Tool that helps discover, understand, and explore scientific texts. The mission is to lower the barriers to scientific knowledge and enable a more inclusive public involvement in science. Join us!
